18 This is what the Lord says.
Look, I will end the captivity[a] of Jacob’s tents
and have compassion on his dwellings.
The city will be rebuilt on the mound of its ruins,
and the citadel will stand in its rightful place.
19 Thanksgiving will come out of them,
    along with the sound of rejoicing.
I will multiply them,
and they will not decrease in number.
I will glorify them,
and they will not be insignificant.
20 Their children will be as they were long ago,
and their community will be established in my presence.
I will punish all who oppress them.
